Washington D.C., May 11, 2011 - Bruce Fein testifies on behalf of Campaign for Liberty before the U.S. House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security. The hearing was named, "USA Patriot Act: Dispelling the Myths". In this video, Fein fields questions from Rep. Louie Gohmert (TX-1).

During the full committee markup of H.R. 1800, by a vote of 22-13, the House Judiciary Committee voted in favor of extending the "business records" provision and "roving wiretap" authority until December 31, 2017, and to make the "lone wolf" provision permanent.

We need to start a massive campaign to get each and everyone of them who voted to extend the "Patriot act provisions" voted out of office and or exposed for lies and crimes past and present against our country.

This was very disappointing. I had seen many things Gohmert said that were fantastic, but this was very disheartening.

Ha! Wonder how much corporate money Gohmert's getting. All neo-con scum, like this clown, need to be rounded up and put in the FEMA camps.

@killricheyrichNOW Sound seems to only be coming out of the Right speaker (I'm using headphones).

[AntiFed1791]

No justice, no peace.

Gohmert is clueless. He was Anderson Cooper's show and made an a** out of himself. Glad I no longer live in that district anymore

[killricheyrichNOW]

Gohmert is a neo-con, plain and simple. End the Patriot Act!

I don't understand how any red-blooded American would elect ANYONE who would vote to nullify our Bill of Rights. What's the matter w/ you guys? Do you really need to have the federal government spoon feed you from cradle to grave? Why can't you stand up for yourselves? We can defend this nation & maintain our rights at the same time.

I can't stand these statist scum politicians. It's hard to watch and hear their bullshit fearmongering.
